Dreams are a universal feature of the human mind. Carl Jung even believed that visions in our dreams offer glimpses into universal archetypes, instinctive primordial images deriving from a collective unconscious built into the very structure of the human brain. You might think, then, that even blind people could tap into this instinctive pool of primordial images and see them in their dreams. However, while people who are blind certainly do dream, their dreams are visual only to the extent that they can see, or could see before their blindness, in their waking life. People who are blind from birth have dreams that are primarily auditory, with their other intact senses participating to about the same degree that they do in a sighted person's dreams. They do not, however, dream in visual images. People who are legally blind but are able to, say, see blurs of movement, light, and color would have a visual dimension to their dreams matching what they see when they're awake.
There is no evidence that the unconscious (or subconscious) mind holds any sort of store of visual symbols independently of the brain's development of systems for interpreting visual input through visual stimulation from birth on. Without that kind of stimulation, the brain has no more ability to imagine images than the blind person would have to see images while awake.

Well, it's rough to do, however sure. I dream. I am blind from delivery. I use a moment sight if you're going to to have interaction. I am a infrequent blind, Hemeralopic. I have nearly no imaginative and prescient whilst uncovered to mild. I see utilizing a kind of resolocation. As an item vibrates, it sends out what's referred to as a resonation, which acts like a kind of metadata, and relying on resonation dimension, I get texture, form, and hues. It has required 11 or so years of no sight in any respect, after which a relatively foremost discovery to take action. I have perfected the method. There cross, I have had a few visible goals. I have not been competent to dream in a while, however it's feasible.

this depends on a few things
someone blind from birth will see abstract images ... images that their brain has created to make sense of things around them
if they are blind from a child , then they may have some memory of what things look like and this would come through in dreams
so it depends on the length of time they have been blind

there are very rare occassions where blind people have " seen " during dreams
but this is not proof of God ... but perhaps proof of OBEs and spirit/soul
although for some , proof of spirit is proof of God ... but to some it isnt

A person who can't see wouldn't dream about viewing objects. They would dream about their other senses. A person who could see at one time would probably have visual dreams based on things they remember before they went blind.

you don't need to see to see in a dream. the eyes do not see. the brain sees. think of it as a camera and a screen. the eyes are cameras and the brain is the screen. so it would be possible for a blind person to actually see in a dream. i wonder what that would be like.

god has nothing to do with it.

Not everyone dreams visually. Some people only dream in sound or touch or else they simply "know" what is going on but can't describe that knowledge as being visual or audio.

They don't need a gods help.

It depends why they are blind, and if they had sight at one time. Dreams are not just visual, the are auditory.

They can dream without images, or just with the imaginary images they figured out of persons and objects they interact with.
